The Left’s Dirty Little Secret – Cleaned By Rosa!

"We don't owe immigrants anything. They aren't black Americans. We didn't do anything to the Mexicans streaming across our border. Or, for that matter, to the Haitians, Ecuadorians, Pakistanis and so on. No slavery, no Jim Crow laws, no redlining. . . We certainly don't owe them more than we owe our own fellow citizens, especially our black fellow citizens, who could use our help."

Ann Coulter  "One thing no liberal will ever turn down is the opportunity to get a standing ovation for accusing someone else of racism. 

"Democrats have placed their opening bid in the immigration talks on Trump's 10-yard line -- a hilariously unbalanced "compromise" that is worse than their original proposal. Now, they are battering him with accusations of racism to force him into an amnesty deal that he was specifically elected to prevent. 

"Forced to choose, soccer moms are going with MSNBC -- and, hey, if that means we'll still have Rosa to clean the house, well, that's OK, too! 

"Liberals have gotten a free ride for too long on using phony claims of "racism" to promote policies that hurt black people but help themselves. It's like spoiling a kid; by the time he's 15, it's impossible to get him to clean his room. 

"The virtue signalers have been out in force lately, putting in museum-quality performances ever since receiving an unsubstantiated report about Trump's alleged "s---hole countries" comment in a private meeting. 

"At least all the raging sanctimony is based on a solid source: the claims of one guy with a track record of making up things said in private meetings. 

"Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) is the only person accusing Trump of referring to Haiti and African nations as "s---hole countries." Four people at the meeting deny it. 

"Headline on Politico: "Durbin Confirms Trump's "S---hole Remarks During Meeting" 

"Wow, so he not only leaked the remarks -- he confirmed them! 

"Just a few years ago, both the Obama White House and Republican House leaders denied Durbin's claim that a Republican congressman had said to President Obama, "I cannot even stand to look at you." 

"The four people who deny that Trump used the word "s---hole" are Trump himself, Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen, and Sens. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) and David Perdue (R-Ga.). They have been required to retract nothing about the meeting. None of them have a history of being contradicted by both Republicans and Democrats over claims they made about a private conversation." . . .

Insane: CNN Doctor Says Trump Has Heart Disease Despite White House Doctor Saying Exactly the Opposite

Townhall  "Yesterday White House Dr. Ronny Jackson spent nearly an hour answering questions about President Trump's health after conducting a physical at Walter Reed Medical Center last week. Johnson also examined President Barack Obama during his time in the White House.

"Johnson made physical the results clear: the president is in excellent health and fit to serve. 
" 'His health is excellent right now," Jackson said. "He's fit for duty for the remainder of this term and another term if he is elected."
" 'All clinical data indicates that the President is currently very healthy, and that he will remain so for the duration of his presidency," he continued.
"He presented every piece of data from the exam, holding nothing back at the request of the president and answered every question reporters had about the results. 
" 'One thing that really stands out to me is his cardiac health," Jackson said, adding that based on objective data, the president is far above average for his age.
"But that hasn't stopped reckless speculation from the media, who continue to assume something is wrong with the president both physically and mentally. 
"This morning on CNN Dr. Sanjay Gupta, who has never examined Trump, claimed he has heart disease. " . . .  Katie Pavlich

From 2015: Stifling diversity in Atlanta; A fire chief is fired for writing a book about his religious beliefs

“ 'I’m not apologetic for writing this book,” he says. “Everything I wrote in the book is based on Scriptures, not my opinions,” Mr. Cochran told reporters after the mayor announced the chief’s ouster. “I simply spoke to sex being created by God for procreation, and He intended it to be between a man and a woman in holy matrimony — and that any other sex outside of that is sin.' ”
Washington Times

Atlanta Fire Chief Kelvin Cochran has been fired for authoring a Christian book in 2013 that described homosexuality as a "sexual perversion." (atlantaga.gov)

"Liberals claim to be champions of “diversity” in all things, particularly in matters of race, ethnicity and gender (they mean “sex”) and gender-bending. “Our diversity is our greatest strength,” Bill Clinton, who demonstrated his embrace of diversity with the pursuit of a diversity of women in the White House, told a diversity forum last year in Phoenix.
"But tolerance of a diversity of opinion, the most important diversity of all because it is the foundation of a free society, makes these champions gag. They become the thought police. You could ask Kelvin Cochran, the former fire chief of Atlanta. He was dismissed last week by Mayor Kasim Reed, who caved to the lobbying of the militants, the gays, the lesbians, the bisexuals, the transgender and the others who are unhappy with what most people think of their sexual customs.
"The LGBT&O organizations were grievously offended by a book about biblical morality by Mr. Cochran, who presented his critical opinions of “sodomy, homosexuality, lesbianism, pederasty, bestiality, all other forms of sexual perversion.” This was neither an official manual nor guide book for behavior of municipal employees, but a book privately printed by Mr. Cochran, expressing his personal opinions, which — so far — is his right guaranteed by the First Amendment to the Constitution. He required no one to buy or read his book.
"Mr. Cochran, who had returned as the fire chief in Atlanta following a brief tenure in a job in the Obama administration, did not single out gays, lesbians, bisexuals, etc., for disapproval, but criticized all kinds of sexual adventurers, some gay and some merely cheerful in the pursuit of pleasure. He is an equal-opportunity critic of what he deems misbehavior in many forms. The extrapolation of his opinion of homosexuality takes up only a half page of his 160-page book." . . .


“New California” moves to split off from Golden State

Legal Insurrection
High taxes, poor services, and misplaced priorities inspire the attempt to unite the rural areas into new state.

"Shortly after the New Year opened, I noted that President Donald Trump had begun mounting a #CounterResistance to California’s political war against his administration.
"I recommended 5 strategies for continuing the battle, including assistance in helping the “State of Jefferson” break free to dilute the Golden State’s electoral power.
"It appears that someone may have followed-up with this suggestion, as a group of unhappy state residents has launched a quite public declaration to create “New California“.
With the reading of their own version of a Declaration of Independence, founders of the state of New California took the first steps to what they hope will eventually lead to statehood. CBS Sacramento reports they don’t want to leave the United States, just California.
“Well, it’s been ungovernable for a long time. High taxes, education, you name it, and we’re rated around 48th or 50th from a business climate and standpoint in California,” said founder Robert Paul Preston.
The state of New California would incorporate most of the state’s rural counties, leaving the urban coastal counties to the current state of California.
"This movement is different than the “State of Jefferson” because all of the non-coastal-elite portions of California would become part of the new state (not just the northern section). That works out well for me, as San Diego County would be included with the break-away sections.
"The plan to separate the rural areas from the coastal regions also makes abundant sense. The fiscal and cultural priority differences are vast, as the one part of the state has held on to its freedom-embracing Western heritage while the other portion is trying to channel New York City." . . . 

One year in: How Obama gave us Trump

Timothy P. Carney

"There are plenty of people to blame for the rise of President Trump. But because he was the most powerful person in the world, Barack Obama deserves special mention. "

. . . "How did Obama give us Trump? Many ways. But let’s focus on three.
"First off, Obama gave the country Trump by first giving the country the least likable Democratic nominee in modern history. Picking her as secretary of state put her in line as his successor. His refusal to pre-endorse Vice President Joe Biden in 2016 basically cleared old Uncle Joe out of the field. Also, Obama left behind a party so impoverished and indebted that party powerbrokers had no choice but to tilt the nominating process toward the corporatist fundraising behemoth that is Hillary. The fact that her campaign was sustaining the party's finances speaks to that.
"Biden would have won, and others like Martin O’Malley or Bernie Sanders might have done better than Hillary. But Obama helped give us Hillary, and thus Trump.
"Secondly, Obama helped Trump win during the campaign by lumping Trump in with all other Republicans. The intention was to make all Republicans seem icky and abnormal; the unintended consequence was to make Trump seem much more normal. In October 2016, when Clinton started posting double-digit leads in Michigan and finally pulled ahead in Ohio, Obama shifted from his tack of saying Trump “sure wasn't conservative,” to the tack of lumping Trump in with all Republicans. In Ohio in mid-October, Obama tried to lump Trump with Rob Portman, a staid and sensible establishment Republican senator. The aftermath: Portman maintained his huge leads, and Trump pulled ahead in Ohio, which he won in a blowout.
"Third, and most importantly, Obama’s administration helped Trump beat Hillary, because it scared conservatives into voting for Trump." . . .

Cory Booker completely loses it at DHS secretary Kirstjen Nielsen


M. Catharine Evans  "A crazed, bug-eyed Cory Booker, junior senator from New Jersey, blasted Department of Homeland Security secretary Kristjen Nielsen during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing yesterday on immigration. 

"Booker became so unhinged in his staged outrage that he repeatedly threatened Nielsen, with clenched fists pointed in her direction.
"Equal to Booker's overt violation of Nielsen's right to be treated without hostility and intimidation was the deranged content of his tirade.
"Nielsen had stated earlier she did not hear the president say the "s-hole" word at last week's White House meeting on DACA. " . . .
"Booker went ballistic and accused Nielsen of covering up for the real target of his outburst: President Trump."

. . . 
"The senator then proclaimed that "tens of millions" of Americans are "hurting" over the word.  Booker said he himself experienced "tears of rage" when Durbin called him to report the president's alleged vulgarity.
"Booker's feigned emotional breakdown over a word he has heard many times as mayor of Newark was laughable.
"Booker then rolled out the "white supremacy" charge, with examples of white criminals and their crimes, as if Nielsen, by the fact of her skin color, had committed them.
"The senator's fake outrage and predictable race-baiting do not lessen the seriousness of threatening and harassing a female Cabinet member."
"Booker's lunatic bellowing requires a mental health examination."

Economists agree: Trump, not Obama, gets credit for economy

Anomalous media

Another Look At The Democrat Sob-Phrase “You Didn’t Build That”
. . . "What is the logic behind these uneducated and impoverished immigrants insisting on coming here and benefiting from our nation’s wealth if they did nothing to help build our nation and improve it? The only logic is that liberal Democrats want more Democrat-voting, dependent, poor people here to keep them in office. But Obama and Elizabeth themselves stated it best: “they didn’t build that”, so they should not enter.


"Similarly, socialists, like today’s Democrat politicians, take advantage of America’s wealth and political stability, which is assured by our constitution, even though they did nothing to build our great nation, and do very little to protect and preserve our constitution once they are in office. Per the Democrats’ own argument, they didn’t build the constitution and do precious little to protect it, so why should they be allowed to serve in responsible governmental positions when all they do is trash the constitution when they do take office?"

Economists agree: Trump, not Obama, gets credit for economy  "Who deserves credit for the booming economy? This is not a petty argument. How voters answer the question could well determine whether Democrats retake the House of Representatives come November." . . .

. . . "Happily for President Trump, the pros agree with him. A recent survey of economists suggest it is President Trump, and not Obama, who should be taking a bow.

"The Wall Street Journal asked 68 business, financial and academic economists who was responsible for the strengthening of the economy, and most “suggested Mr. Trump’s election deserves at least some credit” for the upturn. 


"A majority said the president had been “somewhat” or “strongly” positive for job creation, gross domestic product growth and the rising stock market." . . .
